Biomechanical Assessment in Hamilton
Understand your movement.
Relieve your pain.
What is a Biomechanical Assessment?
A biomechanical assessment looks at how your feet, legs, and body move together. If you’re experiencing pain when walking, running, or standing, understanding your biomechanics can reveal the root cause of the problem.
At Feet Forward Podiatry, we use expert assessment techniques to identify imbalances, poor alignment, or areas of strain, so we can build a personalised treatment plan to get you moving comfortably again.
